  2. Design Concepts • mID from penetration of the Fe yoke instrumented with scintillator planes; • Use the muon detector to measure shower leakage; CAL varies from 4 – 7l; • Similar to andetector, but….

  3. R & D is Needed – Why? • How good is muon ID? For full LC menu? • Does E-flow benefit frommCal?. • Requires integration with barrel and forward tracking and calorimetry, structural Fe, solenoid, mechanical support, cables, etc. • Robust design parameters - must be understood, optimized, cost estimated, reviewed…. • Best m detector design?

  4. Mechanical Engineering • Statics OK with 47T plates; • Bolting appears to be possible structurally. • Open questions: Machined Fe? Groove fitted? Spokes a la CMS? Bolted? Opportunities for further ME work here.

  5. Scintillator Layout and Strips Scintillator: 4.1 X 1 cm2 co-extruded strips with 1 mm dia. WLS fiber and outer reflector of TiO2. U/V strips with wls shifted light exiting both ends. Add left/right signals from clear fibers to provide the pulse height sum.

  6. MINOS Hamamatsu H6568 Multi-anode PM16 anodes ea. 4 x 4 mm2

  7. MINOS – MAPMT with fiber guide

  8. Scintillator and PMT Studies • Hamamatsu H6568 MAPMTs loaned to us by MINOS. Wayne State => FE studies. • Scintillator testing at Fermilab in Lab 5 & NIU in prep. for scint. extrusion mach. NIU Test-stand for scintillator QC (Dychkant, Rykalin) Fermilab Lab 5 tests using VLPCs (Bross + Coop. Std.): 1.2, 1.0, 0.5 mm fiber preliminary results. • Setup of extrusion machine

  9. Lab 5 at Fermilab Berstorff Extrusion Machine (purchased by NIU); being installed. First articles of scintillator in June.

  10. Extruded Scintillator R&D at Fermilab • Studied Wavelength shifting (WLS) fiber readout of scintillator extrusions for possible future large scale detectors • Scintillator: MINOS extrusions • 1 X 4 cm – grooved • TiO2 reflector • Scintillator: KEK prototype • 1.2 X 2.5 cm – hole down the middle • TiO2 reflector • WLS: Kuraray Y11 • 1.2 mm 175 ppm (MINOS Standard) • 1.0 mm 200 ppm • 0.5 mm 200 ppm • Photodetector - Visible Light Photon Counter (VLPC) • Used D0 HISTE VI devices • QE=80-85% • Gain »60,000 Alan Bross – March 2003

  11. VLPC Tests with MINOS Scintillator • 1.2 mm WLS fiber (MINOS) results using VLPCs. Tests of 1.0 & 0.5 mm fibers, etc. Want to try co-extr of scint + fiber. MINOS Ref. Value (sum) Alan Bross March2003

  13. Multiplexing fibers • How many fibers onto a single pixel? • MINOS (1.2mm fiber) => 8 fibers/pixel • 128 fibers/MAPMT 188K fibers/128 fibers • 1500 MAPMTs • Needs study and a calibration scheme

  14. Simulation Software Development/Studies • Development of LCD framework with GEANT4 simulation: Chakraborty, Maciel, Zutshi, Lima, students - Toward universal use; - Specific representations for Cal/Mu prototypes; - I/O compatibility with JAS & ROOT. • Development of muon (calorimeter) analysis code: Maciel, Markelof, Milstene • Muon ID & tracking algorithms: • Studies of single muons and pions • Comparison with TESLA studies • Studies of various final states. • We have looked only at SD muon geometry: detectors every 5 cm of Fe.

  15. 4 GeV m– Run 1 event 2 - 32 hits in the Muon Barrel

  16. 10 GeVm-Event 3 Run 1 with 33 Hits in MuDet

  17. 50 GeVp- event 11 run 0 EyeFish View-18 hits in Muon Detector

  18. 10 GeV punchthroughp-event 118-Run1- 6 hits MuDetSD

  19. Tracking Algorithm Development Use the basic algorithm developed by M. Piccolo : compare the muon candidate hits with the track extrapolated from central tracking. Use Dq and Dj cuts in doing the matching. Study: Pion punch-through vs momentum (>80cm m Fe) using a simple algorithm – 16 or more hits in 16 or more gaps in m system with (Dq , Dj)m < (2,2) bins where ea. bin is 21 mr; (Dq , Dj)Hcal < (1,3) 5.2 mr. Remove p decays (less than 1% for pm > 3 GeV). Find punch-through reaches about 1.5% at 50 GeV. Smaller if one vetoes a track with 5 planes having g.e. 2 hits; i.e. hadron-like candidate in the muon detector. C. Milstene/M. Piccolo

  20. Pion Punch-through • The response to p • reported for 35000 events (Tesla) • By M . Piccolo has been Reproduced Theblue diamonds represent The SD • Points for p after • Normalization to account for the • Difference in interaction length • and statistics • TheGreen stars • Correspond to an • Extra cut: • Vetoing when 5 planes have >=2 hits 10/700 = 1.4% Preliminary Result

  21. Improved low momentum muon ID Inspection of the (Dq , Dj) distributions as a function of pm showed asymmetric and skewed distributions. This was traced to a an omission of dE/dx in the projection of central tracks into the calorimeter and muon systems. Fixing this problem has significantly improved the matching efficiency for low momentum muons, 3 to 6 GeV/c. e.g. eff in the 4 GeV bin moves from from 0.7 to 0.95 C. Milstene

  22. Muon ID with dE/dx Correction Preliminary Result

  23. More to Do! • Muon ID in jets may be possible. We need to look. • Lack of progress on the muon system’s use as a calorimeter – potentially important. • Need advances in improved simulation software for planar detectors. • Need to investigate utility of a set of (wire?) chambers between the solenoid and the muon Fe. • How to handle and calibrate 188K channels? • We lack personnel! More magnetism?

  24. Wayne State: Paul Karchin - PMT studies, FE electronics specs, prototype electronics, physics studies. Needs funding for MAPMTs, (wo)manpower, travel. UC Davis: Mani Tripathi - Readout electronics, use existing RO to learn the important parameters. Needs input from Wayne State; needs money to involve others and travel to Fermiab. NIU: Arthur Maciel – Dhiman Chakraborty – the next generation of simulation software; generation/maintenance of SIO library files. Sasha Dychkant/Vicor Rykalin scintillator development and testing. Can pay for student help with UCLC funding! Notre Dame: Mitch Wayne fiber expert; has manpower if he can pay for it – needs funding. The ALC Muon Collaboration • Fermilab: There is a lot to do and we lack manpower!
